各位朋友大家好!
這兩天心境有點浮動、静不下心来、所以延誤未来進行式的介紹。
今天就来談談未来進行式:
**這個時態、主要用来表達某個未来事件的發生“期間”。
She will be working on that book for a long time
(表示一段長時間内都是在從事與那本書有關的工作)
She will be having trouble with his teeth all his life (表示往後的整個人生都會有牙齒的問題困擾他)
**跟過去進行式一樣、也可以表達在未來的某個時間點前後的期間。
What will you be doing tomorrow night at ten?
(以明晚十㸃為時間點)
I'll be sleeping soundly tomorrow night at that hour.(重點跟上句一樣)
**未来進行式常與soon, presently 等時間副詞一起使用、表示和現在非常接近的未来事件或動作。
Soon the men will be working at this end of the building.
We'll be leaving for Asia soon.
We'll be writing to you about that matter presently.
(以上三例句都在描述很快即將發生的事件或動作)
**See 和 hear 這兩個動詞用未来進行式時、與原意稍有出入、帶有特定的意思。
I'll be seeing you( 我期待與您再相會)
You will be hearing from us(我們將會聯絡您)
(以上兩例句都表示不久的未来會發生的事情)
**未来進行式也可以表達可能性很大的猜測。
If I don't get home soon, my wife will be waiting up for me and getting worried.(說話人判定他太太會擔心而睡不着覺等著他)
**在這裡、歐吉桑要再次強調、現在式也可以用来表達一個確定行程或時間表的未来事件、通常會帶時間副詞、而且只有少數的動詞這樣運用:open, close, begin, end,start, finish, arrive, leave, come, return.
例句如下:
The museum opens at 10:00 tomorrow morning.
Classes begin next week.
Mary's plane arrives at 6:05 p.m. next morning
同時再說一次、現在進行式也可以表達未来、但不同之處在於進行式多用於句子主詞的確切意圖或規劃;例句如下:
∆ My wife has an appointment with a doctor. She is seeing Dr. North next Tuesday.
∆ Sam has already made his plans. He is leaving at noon tomorrow.
**另外用現在進行式来表達未来事件時、可以不帶時間副詞、以前後文来判定是否用於表達未来。
舉例:
(問)What are you going to do this afternoon?
(答)After lunch, I am meeting a friend of mine.
We are going to the mall. Would you like to come along?
(上面例句是對話内容都是談未来、回答句裡的現在進行式都没帶時間副詞、但也表示在談未来)
**要表達與現在非常接近的未来事件、可以用: be about to 、be on the point of, 或者 be on the verge of.
例句:
The ship is about to sail for Taiwan
(這隻船即將起航前往台灣)
I am about to sneeze.
(我快打噴嚏了)
The two countries are on the verge of war
(這兩個國家瀕臨戰爭邊緣)
好了、今天就談到這裡、下次再介紹其他時態。
